Tonight! Planning USU Presentation and Poster

Hi Everyone!

I'm changing the order of things on the calendar a bit. I have someone coming on March 3rd to give us a presentation on public speaking. So tonight we are going to be working on our USU presentation and coming up with ideas for our poster. Next week we will be planning the Easter Egg hunt and fundraising event.

So for tonight, come to City Hall (5:45-6:45) with lots of ideas for the USU Leadership Conference!

Thanks! Lori
